Glentress Dirt Crits continue into 2019 with KICC as the organising club.

The race format will be as close as possible to the standard of previous yeas with riders racing fom under 8 to under 16 on a short crit style circuit at Glentress Mountain Bike Trail Centre.

The race series will consist of 4 races taking place over 4 spring / summer evenings in April and May. All circuits will be closed to the public for the short duration of the races.

Sign on is between 5.30 and 6 pm for all riders. First race at 6.15 (final times TBC). Last race and podiums approximately 8pm.

Dusk is around 8.20pm.

Entry is £6 per round online, and £8 on the evening. On the evening entry will only be available IF there are spaces.

Parents or carers of the riders can volunteer to marshal for an evening. We only need a few each week but the event cannot run without them.

You can volunteer during the sign up and all volunteers will enter a draw to win back your entry fees at the end of the series.

Please see info for riders or your acceptance email for a guide to the rules.

Info for Riders

PLEASE NOTE: ONLINE ENTRY ONLY

This is a grass roots event aimed at encouraging children onto their bikes.

The rough rules:

We follow British Cycling's rules but supplement them with the following:

• All races in the Dirt Crit series are open to riders from 6 to 16 years of age (age on 31st Dec'19) until each race reaches capacity and then no further riders will be allowed to start. It is first come, first served for entries.
• Please help us portray an accessible image to mountain biking. No riders are permitted to warm up or cool down on turbos or rollers at this event as there are plenty of trails at Glentress.
• The events are all very short therefore we do not allow the consumption of energy gels or high energy juices (unless it is to manage a diagnosed medical condition).
• Do not warm up on the race track without a number board or between races. The track is closed to the public so we need to know it is only our riders on the track.
• Only ever follow the direction of the course when riding
• Practice will not be marshalled so please ride round with your parents or a responsible adult.
• Always follow the directions or instructions of our volunteer marshals, they are giving up their time to keep you safe.
• Do not ride or walk on the course during other people’s races
• Race considerately and if you need to pass a slower rider set a good example by politely calling "rider" and waiting for them to let you past.
• If you are holding up faster riders please look for a safe place to let them past.
• Have fun, hope for a spot prize each week which will be given to reward the right kind of attitude.
